View Full Version : Recommend a movie for Jethro

I can't think of any group more qualified to ask for entertainment advice, than other RX-8 owners. What a discriminating, elite group of individuals...:)

I've got the next 5 days off work, thinking of taking Mrs. Tull to a movie. Looking for recommendations.

We usually only see 3 or 4 movies a year in the theater, preferring to see most at home. We'll go only if it really benefits from being seen on a big screen, so bear that in mind. Most chick flicks don't need a big screen (hint, hint) and I'm not fond of cop shows or shoot-em-ups.

So, what do you give 2 thumbs up for?

TIA!

Isn't Transformers a kid's movie? Is there something there for someone who was already an adult when the transformer toys came out?

I'd be willing to see it just for the FX, but convincing Mrs. Tull is another story...

they re-did it. it's all live action with CGI. I hear it's excellent. Look up a movie trailer online.

Oceans 13

Yeah, that's looking likely, actually. Mrs. Tull gets weak-kneed for Clooney...

Brilliant. In that case may I suggest Barely Legal School Girls 3 and Rump Riders.

I had to dig into my vault to find this recommendation... The Blood of Heroes. It's hard to beat a movie based on a game where instead of using a ball, they use a dog's skull.

Donnie Darko FTW! Hard to find on DVD though....

omg, no dude...i saw transformers yesterday at 8:30pm (i live in vegas so we get to see it outcoming movies at 8pm the day before release) its probably the best movie ive ever seen in my whole life. If you know anything about the original transformers show it just gives the movie that extra plus. its a semi-shoot-em-up movie so im not sure if ull like it. Probably the best movie of the year imo.

best movie ever by far.

but its fairly easy to find on dvd. they just released the directors cut on dvd last year.

as for the theaters i would suggest pirates 3 (kinda confusing at parts but the ending is really good)

It's been out on DVD for about a month, so I doubt it.

Well, if you want to leave it to a random website to recommend a movie, it might as well be the IMDb top movie list...

its not random. its basicly all the good movies ever. then bootleg versions of the ones that are still in theater.
